George Clooney has revealed that his life has been transformed by marriage and kids – as he shared his happiness at being a father.

Speaking from his home in Lake Como, Italy, the actor, director and campaigner told the Hollywood Reporter that he and wife Amal were “both unrested”, but that he was “a very good diaper guy”.

“I didn’t know I would be,” he said.

After many years of being well-known as perpetually single, Clooney married renowned human rights lawyer Alamuddin in 2014.

His house, he said, is now filled with “the warm sounds of babies crying” and years of being alone “seem like a lifetime ago.”
The pair had known each other for little more than a year and did not discuss having children before getting married, but became parents to twins Alexander and Ella in June.

“The first thing you think is, ‘I hope I don’t screw this up’,” the star said of his feelings about fatherhood.

“You are really responsible for two kids. I want them to be happy. I want them to have a sense of humour. I want them to be interested in things. I want them to be compassionate about other people’s plights.”
